High protein feed are very necessary in the cultivation industry of Artemia salina. One of the proteins sources that can be used is silk worm pupae (Samia cynthia). The aim of this study was to determine the differences in growth of Artemia salina with the treatment of silkworm pupa juice feeding at various doses. This study uses 4 levels of treatment, namely 0.16 ml; 0.33 ml; 0.50 ml and 0.67 ml per liter with 6 replications, which are given daily for 21 days. Abiotic factors of culture media (salinity, temperature, pH, and DO) are controlled and in accordance with the needs of Artemia salina's life. Observation results on the 15th day, 17th day, and 19th day showed that there were differences in the number of Artemia salina due to the treatment of variations in the feed dose of silkworm pupae juice (Samia cynthia) with 0.67 ml feed dosage treatment having the highest average number and significantly different from other dosage treatments. Observations on the 13th day, 15th day and 21st day showed differences in the growth length of Artemia salina due to the variation of the dosage treatment of silkworm pupa juice (Samia cynthia) with 0.50 ml dose treatment having the highest average length and significantly different from other treatments.

We monitored flowering, fruiting and leafing of Vitellaria paradoxa (shea tree) along the north–south gradient in Mali (West Africa), using three study sites for a period of three years. In each site, adult shea trees were marked and monitored in permanent plots of both field and fallow stands. The chronology of phenophases and their mean length as well as flowering and fruiting were assessed. Our data revealed significant variation according to site and stand. The onset of events starts earlier in the south than in the centre or north, but the period covered by events was almost the same for all sites (3 to 6 months for flowering; 5 to 6 months for fruiting; and 2 to 4 months before full leafing).Flowering and fruiting were more regular in the south, but often as high in the north, with an almost similar trend in both fields and fallows. In the centre, flowering was also high in fields as well as in fallows, while the fruiting was medium to high. We also observed variations in the mean length of phenological events in study sites and stands. Sites in the south showed the highest average length of flowering and leafing (76 days and 44 days, respectively), while the central site showed the greatest length of mean fruiting (110 days).  We observed a significant site*stand interaction and noticeable variation over the years. Our study indicates that phenological events of shea tree could be influenced by several interacting biotic and abiotic factors. A future research challenge in shea phenology would be to discriminate these factors and thus help sustainable management of shea tree parklands.

Silkworm pupae meal is a silk industry by-product that in some countries is available as a local product. It contain up to 30% crude fat and 50% crude protein. The chemical score of silkworm pupae protein is 60 and tryptophan is its limiting amino acid. The silk worm pupae meal fat contains 25.7% linoleic acid (Udayasekhara Rao, 1994). Reddy et al (1991) reported that use of diets contain 5% 8% SWP so that replaced 50% of fish meal, lowered weight gain. The aim of this study was to measure the effects of substituting different levels of silkworm pupae (SWP) for soybean meal (SBM) in Arian (an Iranian strain) broiler rations.

AbstractThe occurrence and bioactivities of marine-derived fungi are evaluated in this paper. A total of 16 morphospecies of marine-derived fungi (MDF) were isolated from four host macroalgae and two seagrasses and identified as belonging to the generaAspergillus,Fusarium,Paecilomyces,Penicillium,Sclerotinia,ThamnidiumandTrichoderma, including fivemycelia sterilia.Among these host organisms, the rhodophyteLaurencia intermediaharboured the highest number of isolated MDF. Selected MDF were then assayed and showed to inhibitPseudomonas aeruginosa(8-19 mm zone of inhibition) andStaphylococcus aureus(6-19 mm zone of inhibition), and were cytotoxic against the brine shrimpArtemia salinanauplii (LD50: 201.56-948.37 μg mL−1). The screening led to the selection of five of the most bioactive morphospecies, all belonging to the genusAspergillus. These marine aspergilli were subjected toβ-tubulingene sequence analysis for species identification, and to mass production in different culture media with or without marine salts, and screening of the crude culture extracts for their cytotoxic and trypanocidal activities.Aspergillus tubingensiscultivated in potato dextrose broth with marine salt proved to be the most cytotoxic against P388 (IC50: 1028 ng mL−1) and HeLa (IC50: 1301 ng mL−1) cancer cells. On the other hand,A. fumigatuscultivated in malt extract broth without marine salt was shown to be the most potent againstTrypanosoma congolense(IC50: 298.18 ng mL−1). Our study therefore showed that salinity may influence the bioactivities of some species of MDF.

Abstract Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been largely utilized. Despite that, comprehensive studies on their ecotoxicological effects and environmental risk are still required. In the present study, the AgNPs effect was assessed to some organisms including algae, plants, microcrustaceans, cnidaria, nematodes, aquatic insect, earthworm, and fish embryos. The no-observed-effect concentration (NOEC) was calculated for each organism using a log-logistic function. AgNPs remained stable in contact with culture media during the analyzed period and conditions employed, presenting dispersion less than 20%, except for Artemia salina medium. On this occasion, NPs presented dispersion of approximately 25%, although their size remained unchangeable. The Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC) of AgNPs in the aquatic compartment was estimated in the concentration range from 0.13 to 0.66 µg L-1. A Risk Quotient (RQ) of 15.1 was derived for the NP tested with the aid of a maximum AgNPs Predicted Environmental Concentration (PEC) estimated value. The RQ value superior to one indicates a risk and the need for its management measures implementation. These data, in addition to the expected increase in AgNPs use, reinforce the importance of the AgNPs safety levels establishment that can contribute to performing their risk assessment studies.

Propagation of in vitro plants through other culture media rather than the traditional ones has been widely researched, with satisfactory results. However, to increase the effectiveness of these media, the addition of organic products has been presented satisfactory results. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of the FishFértil® organic fertilizer on the in vitro cultivation of the Brazilian orchid Cattleya labiata. Treatments included FishFértil® fertilizer concentrations of 0; 1; 2; 3; 4; 5 and 6 mL L-1 in a simplified culture medium. At 180 days, shoot height, number of leaves, leaf area, number of roots, root average length, shoot and root dry mass and the shoot: root ratio were evaluated. The experimental design was entirely randomized, with 10 replications, each one containing 10 plantules. Data were submitted to an analysis of variance and regression analysis, at 5% of significance. The FishFértil® organic fertilizer at the concentration of 6 mL L-1 promoted better plantule growth of Cattleya labiata, subcultivated in vitro, in a simplified culture medium.

Background: Mango productivity was very much affected due to a major fungal pathogen, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides causing anthracnose mango rot. The present study was carried out to investigate the influence of abiotic factors for the support of superficial growth of isolated fungus and finding a minimum inhibitory concentration of different fungicides. Methods: Among four different culture media tested, the highest radial growth and sporulation of the fungus were recorded in Oatmeal agar (OMA) (84 mm) followed by Conn’s agar (CA), Czapek Dox agar (CDA) and Potato dextrose agar (PDA). Among the different pH tested, pH 7.0 was found to be the best in supporting the good radial growth (69 mm) followed by pH 6.0 (56 mm), pH 5.5 (49 mm), pH 7.5 (43 mm) and pH 8.0 (37 mm). Among the various temperature tested, 25oC (69.32) was found to be the best followed by 20oC (52.53 mm), 30oC (65.23 mm) and 35oC. Result: Among the fungicides tested, Zineb 68% + Hexaconazole 4% WP (avtar) was found best as the radial growth was observed to be 45, 41, 36, 32, 25 mm at 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 ppm, respectively as compared to 80 mm in control. The fungicide Tricyclazole 18% + Mancozeb 62% WP (Merger) was found to be the least effective in checking the radial growth of C. gloeosporioides even at 100 ppm concentration.
